Peggy's legacy
Since 1968
My aunt made the starter in Texas in the 60's. She gave it to my mother in North Carolina in the 70's. I got it in 1981 after my mother died and have kept it since then.
Characteristics
My starter began in Texas in the 60's. In the 70's it was carried to North Carolina by my mother. In 1981 my mother died and I was given the sourdough, which I have maintained in Georgia. It is like having part of my mother with me. The strain of yeast is Candida stellata.
